Diving in Devon

Whether an advanced diver or just dabbling your first toe in the water, Devon's terrific range of places to dive and brilliant sea-life will take your breath away.

With back-up from the many professionally accredited instruction centres, you'll be keen to take on the challenges of any number of open-water dives in Devon. Explore dramatic reefs and gullies, stroke a dogfish or admire sea cucumbers and jewel anemones - the variety of sea life has to be seen to be believed.

Discover Devon's eventful maritime past from the many wrecks hidden under the waves. Head to Lundy Marine Nature Reserve and explore its fascinating unique spectrum of marine life - sea urchins, starfish and the red banded fish, found only here. Check on the progress of growth on the Scylla, sunk in 2004 to form an artificial reef.

You can join regular, organised dive trips in Devon, led by experienced professionals who know all the best sites, or hire your own boat from a wide number of centres.
